Global Era of Star trekking-Chapter 1002 - 522: Rank 8 [Holy Light City]_2
Chapter 1002 -522: Rank 8 [Holy Light City]_2
[Holy Light City] was established over two hundred thousand years ago, and since its founding, the city has maintained exemplary order, earning an excellent reputation.
That was also the reason why Song Chi didn’t warp the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong directly above [Holy Light City]. Instead, he brought Song Yan out of the [Dimension Space Stone] a billion kilometers away and approached the city slowly and cautiously.
Centered around the expansive [Holy Light City], a no-fly zone stretches for a billion kilometers in radius. Only low-altitude flight is permitted—spatial warping, teleportation, and high-speed light travel are strictly forbidden.
This restriction is more a measure to maintain order in the city rather than an intentional inconvenience for visiting Starry Sea Alien Races.
It was evident that the exterior of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong had undergone significant modifications. This wasn’t merely because Song Chi had proactively withdrawn the layer of “Holy Light Shield,” but also because he had used the “Thousand Changes” feature of the [Mirage Transformation Pearl of Mirage Dragon] for disguise.
Song Chi knew he had no choice. As soon as he heard Song Yan mention that [Holy Light City] was founded by an Eighth Rank Angel King, he immediately removed the [Wings of Royal Authority] component and placed it temporarily in the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.
It was no joke. This Golden Sanctuary Component originated from a fallen Eighth Rank Angel King. If he didn’t store it away, who knows whether the living Angel King might detect it?
If unnoticed, then all would be fine. However, if discovered, trouble was inevitable. Naturally, Song Chi chose the safer option. Anyway, with the [Heavenly Destiny Compass·Disk] component in place, temporarily unloading the [Wings of Royal Authority] wouldn’t cause any resource loss.
“Come on, my two friends are waiting in the city!”
Song Yan called out, and the two controlled the warship as it moved toward the city gates.
“Halt! No private warships are allowed to enter the city!”
Suddenly, their path was obstructed.
But Song Yan had already informed Song Chi in advance, so he wasn’t surprised.
Ultimately, Song Chi put on a layer of Plasma Shield along with a layer of Cloud-Rubbing Gold Vine Armor.
The Plasma Shield featured a Sixth Rank Energy Level defense, while the Cloud-Rubbing Gold Vine Armor was only Fifth Rank for now, which didn’t leave Song Chi feeling particularly reassured.
After all, according to Song Yan, there were numerous Seventh Rank Dominators present in [Holy Light City]. Although the city had always maintained excellent order, there had been occasional incidents of Dominator Creatures actively causing trouble.
Fortunately, Song Yan also recalled his flagship and proactively added a second layer of Individual Shield for him.
“This is a Silver Quality [Flame Shield], enhanced to Seventh Rank. It should maximize your safety, Old Seven!”
Hearing this, Song Chi felt a slight sense of relief.
With three layers of physical shields, coupled with the Spiritual protection from [Dragon Whale Hall]’s Mind Hall, his safety seemed sufficiently secured. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Even so, Song Chi didn’t let his guard down, activating [Plasma Guardian] to equip Song Yan with a Plasma Shield as well.
After finishing their preparations, the two finally entered the gates of [Holy Light City].
As soon as they stepped into this majestic city, its walls covered in Law of Light motifs, Song Chi was visibly awestruck.
In comparison, the family-built [Dragon Spine City] on Robber Star Floating Land, and [Silver Disk City] on Silver Disk Floating Land, paled into insignificance before the grandeur of [Holy Light City].
The sheer population alone revealed an insurmountable disparity.
According to Song Yan, [Holy Light City] housed over ten billion permanent residents.
Upon entering the city, a diverse array of Starry Sea Alien Races came into view—Angels, Vampires, the Sword Slave Clan, Humans, Half-Dragons, and more. The spectacle was truly astonishing.
After scanning the broad streets resembling grand squares and the varied alien beings, Song Chi reassumed his composure and turned his gaze toward Song Yan beside him.
As if understanding what Song Chi was contemplating, Song Yan nodded straight away.
“Let’s take a stroll. This [Holy Light City] gathers over ten thousand different species, with goods of all kinds. If we’re lucky, we might find something valuable.”
Song Chi naturally didn’t refuse, beginning to explore the stalls and shops lining the streets alongside Song Yan.
Silver Legendary Oddity
Intermediate Earth Attribute Law Crystal
Ether Crystal
Red Fire Seed Oddity
…
After wandering through just a handful of the innumerable streets in the city, Song Chi already spotted plenty of valuable items.
Two hours later, the two entered a shop named [Arcane Tower]. This large establishment, located near the central district, was said to be backed by the Arcane Civilization, which boasted Dominator-level creatures.
Thanks to its influential backing, the shop housed a myriad of quality goods, otherwise unworthy of attracting Song Chi’s interest.
Upon stepping through the entrance, Song Chi and Song Yan’s gazes were instantly drawn to the radiant golden light emanating from the display cabinet at the center of the shop. Within it rested a Gold Quality Sanctuary Wondrous Oddity.
[Oddity: Power Gem]
[Quality: Gold]
[Convertible: No]
[Note: A uniquely derived gem from the Arcane Continent, brimming with immense energy—though utilizing it is exceedingly difficult.]
“What a pity!”
Song Chi shook his head. While Golden Sanctuary Oddities were undoubtedly treasures, a non-convertible oddity held little value for a Torch Ship Captain like him.
The two didn’t rush to leave but meticulously inspected the store’s offerings. The [Arcane Tower] shop boasted far more than one Golden Sanctuary Wondrous Oddity.
As they browsed, Song Chi suddenly halted.
“How much for this Sealing Origin Stone?”
Soon, a nearby shop assistant provided an answer.
“My lord, 10 strands of Sixth Rank Floating Land Origin!”
Upon hearing this, Song Chi didn’t hesitate—he bought the Sealing Origin Stone immediately.
After the transaction concluded, a subtle smile played on his lips.
To a Torch Ship Captain, the Sealing Origin Stone was no stranger. It was one of the special resources potentially required for a battleship’s evolution into a Fearless Ship.
With this purchase, he had now collected two of the four necessary resources—an achievement worth celebrating.
After continuing their explorations, Song Chi acquired a substantial quantity of resources, highly sought after in both the Zhu Tian Ruins Market and Divine Kingdom Player Trading Space. These items could fetch ten to several dozen times their original price upon resale, motivating Song Chi to buy as much as possible.
As time grew late, Song Yan urged Song Chi to stop.
“There’s plenty of time to browse later. For now, come meet my two friends.”
…
[Holy Light City], North District.
Following Song Yan’s lead, Song Chi soon encountered the so-called friends Song Yan had mentioned.
“Mirrors Clan?”
At the instant he observed their hallmark crystalline bodies, Song Chi identified their origins.
Song Yan’s introduction further confirmed it.
“Old Seven, these two are outstanding talents of the Mirrors Clan—Jing Ji and Jing Hu.”
“This is my seventh brother…”
After brief introductions, Song Chi greeted the two individuals warmly and courteously.
As he understood, the Mirrors Clan bore many similarities to the Torch Human Civilization—both were top-tier Advanced Civilizations within the Shattered Starry Sea. Known for their expertise in stealth and deception, they were formidable adversaries in battle, capable of catching opponents off guard.
“Alright, let’s proceed this way. In seven days, we’ll launch the operation targeting the Star Spirit Race. Jing Ji and Jing Hu, you’ll handle the Star Spirit Dominator. We’ll intervene covertly to conceal your identities as much as possible. As for the subsequent spoils, we’ll split them 46.”
“Agreed!”
…
With the arrangement finalized, both parties parted ways, agreeing to reconvene at the city gates six days later.
“Big Brother, can these two be trusted?”
Song Chi voiced the question weighing on his mind.
After all, they were Alien Races, and he naturally harbored some reservations.
“Absolute trust would be unrealistic. However, I’ve collaborated with these two for over a century—there shouldn’t be any significant issues!”
Since Song Yan had spoken, Song Chi chose not to dwell on the matter further. Over the following six days, the two continued exploring [Holy Light City].
On this particular day, a glimmer of intrigue appeared in Song Chi’s eyes as he discovered a shop named [Apocalypse Machinery].
